All About Braces - Thread 3

^ dapat ba punta sa ortho for retainer adjustment all the time? sabi lang ng dentist ko is if
it feels loose lang eh..

I can push the sides and it feels instantly tighter. I'm also contemplating rin if I should have
put braces sa lower teeth ko.. zz

[Myealexis21]

^Sis not sure, not wearing braces yet... just planning (and dreading it!)

What I heard is my monthly check up yan... not sure though

@minatay,

Sis ang alam ko ang retainers nilalagay after mo mag braces. Nag braces ako before ngayon naman yung sister ko yung currently na naka braces. Before siya gusto lang niya retainers. Sabi ng dentist namin mas lalo lang makakasira ang retainers specially daw kung hindi naman daw pinrescribe ng attending dentist/ortho. If your from the south i can refer you to them. My clinic sila sa las pinas ska sa alabang.

[ohcmon]

^^^ Hindi ina-adjust ang retainers kagaya ng braces.

Kinabitan ako ng power chains the other day. Nilagnat ako. Lol.

[kwang sun]

^need pa rin adjustment. ewan ko sa dentist ko lol

[ky_file]

Pag maluwag lang ata ang retainers dun lang sinisikipan. Pero di siya gaya ng braces na every month na inaadjust.

[mysterioza_me]

guys do you have any idea kung tumatanggap si dra echano ng transferees kahit walang documents from their previous ortho? Nka-braces na kasi ako pero gusto ko lumipat ng dentist

[felicity_ong]

ako din, i need to transfer to a new dentist.. ayaw ko na talaga bumalik dun sa dati ko.....

[orangeraine]

^^you can naman sis. basta sabihan niyo lang yung dati niyong ortho. I think they would understand naman.

[chockulit]

Mga sis, meron ba kayong masa-suggest na affordable orthodontist sa bandang Las Pinas or Paranaque area? 

[kittybabe]

Hi mga sis, nag-braces na ako in highschool tas before college tinanggal na sya ng dentist ko kasi ok na daw teeth ko and shes migrating to the US na pala nun. I wore retainers for a year pero nung nasira na sya, wala na ang ortho ko. Through the years nag-drift na teeth ko and ang crossbite ko parang bumalik na. Can someone suggest a good ortho within qc and greenhills area? Saka im getting married december next year, kaya ba siya matanggal before my wedding? I really want to have symmetrical teeth before my wedding eh. Thanks in advance!

Sa Dentalign sa qc ako nagpa braces, ceramics pinakabit ko. Always ask kung graduate ba ng ortho. Di lahat ng dentist nag aral ng ortho, yung iba nagpaturo lang or nagseminar lang pala. Sa case ko 6 months lang naayos na, every 2 weeks adjustment ko.

[ppperez]

Okay ba yung mga dental clinics sa malls? Like Metro Dental and such?

[minatay91]

^^^ thank you for the tips!

nagbraces ako for 18months kase I forced my dentist to put me on powerchain and I said
I'll endure the pain. ayoko magbraces for 3 years WTH hahaha so I forced her to put me on
consecutive powerchain!

and she never mentioned na I needed to visit her every month, sabi lang niya if super loose nalang
daw. and I just tighten it naman and move it around. so far so good paman..

[mysterioza_me]

Nagmessage ako kay dr echano di daw [textspeak!] tumatanggap ng transferees unless may endorsement from your previous ortho 

ako din, i need to transfer to a new dentist.. ayaw ko na talaga bumalik dun sa dati ko.....

sis pagnakahanap ka refer mo ko ha bakasakaling pwede ko mapuntahan

[orangeraine]

^my ortho accepts naman. but uulitin nila ulit yung procedure. meaning, aalisin yung old brackets. then papalitan ng bago.
